Yeah, it must be Microsoft's fault. Dude, whether you like them or not, they made computers accessible to the masses like no one else ever did before or have since. Pretty much the same as what Apple did with the smart phone. Let me guess, you think it is Ford's fault because no one can fix their car and know what is going on under the hood, amirite?
Blame game aside, I can't help but notice that the current generation are fairly clueless when it comes to the underlying OS of their machine. In fact, using your automotive example, most would honestly struggle to change a flat tyre at the side of the road.
Of course that's no fault of the GUI, the GUI was just an evolution that was bound to happen one way or another - Having said that, there's no doubting people's negativity and blind fear of anything command line based, even though it's still very much a necessity under every OS in even mildly advanced situations.
